My new favorite

We have some friends that share recipes with us, a few weeks ago they shared a keeper!  We call them Chimichangas.  It is a favorite, because it tastes so yummy, and is very easy.  You put everything in the crock pot, cook it, shred the meat (I prefer to use a Kitchen Aid to do the dirty work), roll the tortillas, spread cheese over top, broil for 5-10 minutes and you're done!

So delicious!






**If you're wondering what the meat is cooked in, I'll share!  2 cans of green enchilada sauce, 1 small can of chili's.   I've also made this with a small can of verde salsa, I don't think it really changed the flavor that much. 

If you make this dish, let me know how you liked it!  I'll share it with my friend too!

Oh!!  Do you have any great recipes???????

Updating

I really enjoy doing little projects around the house that make the house feel new again.  Last week I decided to change the color of my dining room.  It only cost me $25 for 1 can of paint, and then I decided to buy 2 little wall hangings to match one I had in another room that relocated into the dining room.  Hobby Lobby had them 1/2 off, so I got both for $15.  So for $40 I gave my dining room a whole new look!

Some of my before pictures are really! really old, but you can see the difference.
